Hi, Al,
I'm still not convinced that we cannot "view these concepts in terms of
drawbacks and trade-offs".
Allow me to introduce an argument of reductio ad absurdum. If it is "difficult
to find problems/trade-offs" with what you call the MDP, should not all our
code
look like:
public Object doSomething(Object object) { ... }
public Object doSomethingElse(Object object) { ... }
public Object doSomethingDifferent(Object object) { ... }
or similar? That is, at what point do we say a collection of methods taking an
object and returning an object is not sufficient to describe our system?
